Standing Committee Reports:
a. TEC Bylaws Committee-J. Cottone, M. Barduhn, N. Aumann, J. O’Callaghan: John
Cottone updated the council on changes that have been updated over the course of the
summer, most important of which was the reactivation of the TEC Steering committee.
By and large the remaining changes to the by-laws represent changes in titles of unit
representatives to reflect newly added/discontinued positions from the ex-officio
membership.
b. TEC Assessment Committee: No Report but M. Barduhn informed the council that they
are just getting organized and will be charged with looking at some specific tasks.
c. Conceptual Framework Committee: J. Mosher updated the council on the work of the
update committee and reviewed a number of changes that resulted from their review.
The only substantive changes were the sequence of the outcomes to better align with
standards . She also reviewed the new crosswalk and informed the council that they
may need to reflect these changes in the crosswalk in the Spring 11 syllabi. She also
informed the council members that there is a handout and a power point that can be
used to familiarize students and other stakleholders with the updated conceptual
framework. She asked if there would be a motion to accept the revised conceptual
framework.
i. Moved by J. Mosher with second by R. Grantham. Discussion: R. Grantham
asked if this is how the CF will be presented. Bill Buxton asked what level of
response they got in the public/campus presentations. Joy indicated that
acceptance was almost universal. Bill indicated that he had raised some
objections that were not necessarily shared as part of the feedback. Bill was

reluctant to take additional time to repeat his concerns at this meeting. Angela
Pagano shared that the committee did note all feedback, both positive and
negative but that, due to the short timeline/deadline there was not sufficient
time make all changes and reflect all feedback. Laura Campbell asked if the
intent was to keep it general enough that it is not measureable so that the
departments can make it measurable. J. Mosher stated that it is not
measureable due to our desire to be able to include future technological
changes. M. Barduhn informed the council that these outcomes are already a
part of the current assessment system but as to whether or not we are
measuring them currently or not the answer is probably “no”. We will be
working in the coming months to refine and strengthen our unit assessments.
We will now put the item up for electronic vote according to our by-laws.
d. TECRC: N. Aumann shared that she published a portion of the annual report as a means
of updating the council yesterday. So far this year they have had two meetings and the
issues they will be working on this semester will be an update to the brochure which has
already begun and a review of dispositions. Any changes to the SUNY Cortland
dispositions will be reviewed and also put up for electronic vote in the near future.
Laura Campbell brought up an issue of graduate students not being checked for
disposition violations until they go out to student teach. Will they be reviewed and
how? Nancy indicated that right now when disclosures are brought to someone’s
attention the student is simply advised to disclose the violation and then they are
directed to the appropriate associate dean. Nancy did indicate that the TECRC would
hear and consider all recommendations for improvement.
e. TEC Curriculum Committee: E. Gravani-No Report as the committee has not met this
semester.
Old Business
a. Update and Approval of the SUNY Cortland Conceptual Framework (Power point,
Crosswalk, Handout): J. Mosher and Committee: See above.
b. Results of the Professional Development Needs Faculty Survey: D. Farnsworth with
input from M. Barduhn: Marley drew the attention of the council members to the
survey result of needed professional development items and indicated that we would
focus on some of these major themes during the course of the year and there will be
concerted effort including the resources available to Laura Gathagan to help us bring
these items to the fore. The list of prioritized professional development needs
identified through the administration of the survey are appended to these minutes.
New Business
a. Presentation of the Reliability and Validity Study on the current SUNY Cortland Student
Teacher Evaluation: Merle Canfield: Merle shared a presentation he compiled related
to the reliability and validity of the current student teacher evaluation. We have over
40,000 completed evaluations since 2004. The STE originally had 124 items and now
includes only 10. There are a number of different categories of raters yielding data for
this study, including students themselves, supervisors, cooperating teachers, etc. Merle
VI.
reviewed the items and related them to the desired outcomes. The ratings are based on
3-MET; 2-APPROACHING, and 1-NOT MET. With this type of scale you will not usually
get good correlations but the result here was OK. In the final analysis we have an
instrument that is reliable. For validity Merle took the mean and related it to GPA and
certification scores (3 factors). He also verified that indeed, in terms of validity, student
self-ratings were poor, teachers were moderate and college supervisors were the group
who do the best job. Again, in the final analysis we have a valid instrument. Merle
recommends that we continue to use the current version of the STE. Based on the
numbers that Merle displayed (low), Gigi wondered whether some cooperating teachers
were not completing mid term and final evaluations. She wondered whether this was
the result of only offering our supervisors $200 even though there are increasing
responsibilities. Marley talked about a committee she serves on with SUNY Deans and
an initiative to increase that stipend over a period of time to compensate those
increasing responsibilities appropriately. Highlights of the presentation are appended to
these minutes.
b. The Teacher Work Sample: The impact of teacher candidates on K-12 student learning.
– JoEllen Bailey and Andrea Lachance: JoEllen shared a power point on teacher work
samples. TWS are used to meet program/SPA standards for assessment. She explained
the Teacher Work Sample Methodology. The full power point presentation is appended
to the meeting minutes. Marley asked how the students have fared in meeting the
requirements of the TWS. JoEllen responded that so far our candidates have done very
well. M. Gfeller asked if the college supervisors are trained in the use of the TWS.
JoEllen indicated that each year they review the TWS with supervisors. Andrea
Lachance then did a presentation on what her department does and, although not
exactly a TWS, it does focus on assessment through rubric development. This evolved
after a change at ACEI when the department consolidated 20 assessments into 8. They
call this instrument the Assessment and Teaching Sample of Developmentally
Appropriate Practice. It focuses on developmentally appropriate instruction and
assessment. Marley asked if the students seem to get this pretty quickly. Andrea
responded that it depends how well the supervisors understand the newer terms so
they are currently working with the supervisors to train them on the use of the
assessments. Bruce asked about evidence of candidate effects on student learning. Are
we really evaluating our candidates ability to use, collect and analyze data from student
assessment or are we looking at how the students do after our candidates implement an
instructional plan. There will be two additional opportunities to hear about TWS from
Andrea and JoEllen, as they will be conducting Sandwich Seminars a bit later on in the
semester on this topic.

J. Cottone congratulated the writers of a 325 grant that we learned today has been
awarded in regard to Special Education. It will start small this year as a collaboration
between FSA and Childhood Ed but will eventually spread to all aspects of the campus.
Much work has gone into the preparation and writing of this grant and those involved
should be proud of their accomplishment.
PSA from John Shirley: The Career Services Staff is than willing to come and speak with your
classes and/or at student teaching seminars on fingerprinting, the TEACH system, etc.
M. Barduhn asked about the Board of Regents and how we might obtain TEC input about
developments coming through the Board of Regents. How can we get the word out to all
Teacher Education Faculty about these changes? Suggestions from the council were to included
the changes as an announcement on the MRD TEC site. Announcing changes as email
announcements.
Creating a link on MRD for NYSED/Regents. Including a bulleted list of changes and or initiatives
announced through email with clear subject headings. Some members felt that all three
methods should be used while others felt that they would be inundated with emails as there
were so many changes coming about. It was decided that D. Farnsworth and M. Barduhn would
determine the most effective method to use. It was also mentioned that some of these
changes/initiatives may need to be added to the TEC agenda for discussion by the full council.
Announcement about the AACTE Web Conference on 21st Century Assessment.

A. Standing Committee Reports:
1. TECRC-J. O’Callaghan-J. O’Callaghan and J. Bailey- A brief
overview of the committee was delivered by J. O’Callaghan. Jerry
passed out a copy of the TECRC brochure to use in presenting the
goals and objectives of the committee. A sub-committee of the TEC,
the TECRC is charged with reviewing applications to the teacher
education program; developing a rubric for evaluation; continually
assessing candidate qualifications at various checkpoints, and
notifying questionable applicants of the committee’s decision. Jerry
also talked briefly about the process that the committee employs to
ensure that they are fully informed of any violations of law or codes.
He also talked about candidate due process rights and the appeal
process. Jerry also informed the committee that in excess of 600
teacher education candidates were reviewed in this academic year.
We now also have a reliable database to store information on who
was reviewed and what the consequences levied were. K. Smith
asked whether it was possible to be excused from charges in the
courts but still held to consequences here at SUNY Cortland up to
and including being barred from becoming a teacher. The answer
was that his scenario was possible based on a full review and looking
at the evaluation rubric. JoEllen Bailey also discussed the two
applications to teacher education programs for both undergrad and
grad students. With the dissolution of the Grad Office, JoEllen was
asked to combine the two applications to come up with one unified
application that would meet the needs of all teacher education
candidates. Bill Buxton has always believed that there should be a
different application for grad students as they are already certified,
indicating that they are of good moral character. However, not all
graduate students have been certified (MAT, MST candidates).
Discussion ensued with some disagreement among voting members.
Rationale was provided by several members for including the
questions relating to past convictions. Motion to put the issue of
combining the two current applications up to ballot was accepted .
2. TEC Curriculum Committee-E. Gravani: Met in April to approve
the MST in PE, the BSED in PE, Adolescence Education- Chemistry,
and Teaching Students With Disabilities. There will be another
meeting in May. Need to check the TEC bylaws on protocols for
appointing new members to the standing committee. There have
been some questions with regard to the flow of the curriculum
review process before curriculum goes to CCRC for a final
decision. It is rare for something to go back to the CCRC once the
TEC curriculum committee approves or reviews. The TEC review
centers on making certain that the new or revised curriculum
addresses appropriate standards.
3. NCATE Steering Committee: J. Cottone, B. Mattingly, M.
Barduhn: We are waiting to hear who our reviewers will be for the
on-campus visit by the Board of Examiners from NCATE. Knowing
who our reviewers are will facilitate you telling us if there are
conflicts with any of the reviewers such as being former
employees/faculty of our institution and/or SUNY, etc.
a. Draft Institutional Report due on May
30, 2010-M. Barduhn
b. Standards Sub-committee Updates:
i. Standard 1-C. VanDerKarr: Carol
did a powerpoint on Standard 1
elements outlining the work of the
committee. A link to the PP is
appended to these minutes.
Bruce asked if the Career Services
survey can be used and if not can
we modify it so that there is only a
need for this one survey.
ii. Standard 6-J. Cottone: John also
reviewed progress in the
development of language
addressing Standard 6. He feels
that we are in very good shape
with this standard and that we will
certainly meet the standard at an
acceptable level if not at target.
iii. Report on Data from the QC
Survey Results-Dennis reviewed
the survey results with the TEC
and indicated that he has not yet
had time to sit down and do a full
analysis of the results in order to
determine whether or not we will
continue using the Quality Circle
Process with SPA Program reports
and other NCATE related
documents.
4. Update from the SUNY Cortland Ad Hoc Conceptual Framework
Review Committee-J. Mosher & K. Howarth: A great deal of work
has been completed in order to pare the original document down

to approximately 3 pages, the references and citations have also
been updated and several open forums have been conducted to
share the guiding document and to get feedback about how the
many constituencies view the conceptual framework. Joy and
Kath shared the vision for the unit’s TE programs by talking about
the power point that was prepared to highlight the framework’s
main elements. The logo is the visual representation of what we
think about teacher education and we will keep on explaining this.
An online survey polling opinions on how well the conceptual
framework reflects our view of teacher education is still up. If you
have not had time to take the survey please do so at your first
opportunity.
Discuss the re-establishment of the TEC Standing Committee on
Teacher Education Unit Assessment
a. Charge to the Teacher Education Unit Assessment
Committee
b. Committee Membership-Call for volunteers
Discuss the re-vitalization of the TEC Standing Advisory
Committee: Purpose, Responsibilities, Committee Membership,
etc.- What is most useful to the programs as a matter of purpose?
The inaugural meeting of this committee is scheduled for June 7,
2010. We will provide a full report of the Advisory Group
activities to the full TEC at the commencement of the Fall 2010
semester.
Present the ballot for the vote on use of data, aggregated by
school, from CTE’s in support of NCATE Standard 5-B. Mattingly:
There was a question (L.Couturier) about whether or not this was
our only option. Bruce indicated that he is asking to create a
report that we don’t usually use. Perhaps we should consider
what we might want to do in future with regard to formative
assessment.
Update on the effort to revise the TEC Bylaws of 2009 and the TEC
Policy and Procedure Manual: J. Cottone indicated that there has
not been any activity toward updating the bylaws and P & P
Manual at this time. Related to this item is a new business
motion to reauthorize a Standing Committee on the Teacher
Education Council Bylaws.
9. Professional Development School (PDS) update and National
Conference Report-K. Hempson: See appended report by the PDS
Coordinator.
10.Review and Discuss changes to the proposed “Disrupted
Placements Flow-Chart” and the “Disrupted Placements
Narrative” Documents-K. Beney reviewed changes that were
made to the original documents after TEC input at the April 2010
meeting. She also included a narrative section to the graphic that
provided clarifying language. The committee had no further
recommendations on the documents.

I. Our Vision for Teacher Education – SUNY Cortland’s vision for teacher education programs
is shared by our faculty who appreciate Cortland’s historical commitment to teacher education
and to program excellence. Teacher candidates are the focus of all our endeavors. SUNY
Cortland is dedicated to developing candidates’ knowledge, integrity, professional standards and
commitment to their future students and school community. Our vision is based on a set of
common values related to teacher preparation.
The College:
-provides opportunities for candidates to “graduate with the knowledge, integrity, skills and
compassion to excel as leaders, citizens, scholars, teachers and champions of excellence” (SUNY
College at Cortland, 2009);
-values the collective knowledge, skills and talents of its teaching community;
-provides diverse learning experiences and quality instruction, based on best practices and a
strong knowledge base;
-expects collaboration among liberal arts and professional members of the unit;
-supports collaboration among members of the unit and professionals in public schools;
-expects faculty leadership in professional organizations;
-celebrates faculty commitment to lifelong learning and engagement in social issues.
II. Our Mission is congruent with the College mission and is framed by a fundamental
commitment to liberal learning. Program curricula are based on a sound theoretical and empirical
framework to provide candidates with knowledge and practical experiences necessary to become
reflective and effective teachers. The unit prepares teachers to contribute to their profession, their
communities and to the democratic development of society.
III. Our Philosophy for teacher education is built upon a foundation of liberal learning and
pedagogical knowledge and skills emphasizing personal responsibility, social justice and
global understanding. Personal responsibility is addressed as candidates confront issues of
integrity, ethics, commitment and moral choice. Social justice is addressed as candidates seek,
through words and actions, full participation for all people in a global society. Global
understanding is developed as candidates are exposed to multiple perspectives and a variety of
school environments; they are prepared to teach immigrants and international students and to
address the physical, emotional, and intellectual needs of a diverse and multicultural student
population. The Cortland apple tree symbolizes our approach to teacher education (link) as
detailed below.
IV. Candidate Proficiencies and Knowledge Base – Our teacher education programs provide
opportunities and experiences to help candidates develop the knowledge, skills, and dispositions
required for effective teaching. The following thirteen proficiencies ensure that our teacher
candidates will make a difference in the classroom and beyond:
• KNOWLEDGE BASE – Candidates will:
1. Demonstrate a solid foundation in the arts and sciences;
2. Possess in-depth knowledge of the subject area to be taught;
3. Understand how students learn and develop;
4. Manage classrooms structured in a variety of ways to promote a safe learning environment;
5. Know and apply various disciplinary models to manage student behavior.
• PROFESSIONAL COMMITMENTS – Candidates will:
6. Collaborate with other staff, the community, higher education, other agencies, and cultural
institutions, as well as parents and other caregivers, for the benefit of students;
7. Continue to develop professionally as ethical and reflective practitioners who are committed to
ongoing scholarly inquiry;
• STANDARDS – Candidates will:
8. Know state and national standards, integrate curriculum across disciplines, and balance
historical and contemporary research, theory, and practice;
9. Demonstrate appropriate professional dispositions to help all students learn;
• DIVERSITY -- Candidates will:
10. Apply a variety of teaching strategies to develop a positive teaching-learning environment
where all students are encouraged to achieve their highest potential;
11. Foster understanding of and respect for individuals’ abilities, disabilities and diversity of
variations of ethnicity, culture, language, gender, age, class, and sexual orientation.
• ASSESSMENT – Candidates will:
12. Use multiple and authentic forms of assessment to analyze teaching and student learning and
to plan curriculum and instruction to meet the needs of individual students.
• TECHNOLOGY – Candidates will:
13. Demonstrate sufficient technology skills and the ability to integrate technology into
classroom teaching/learning.
These outcomes align with national, state, institutional and SPA standards (see Crosswalk).
The narrative below explains how faculty based them on existing research and best practice.
• KNOWLEDGE BASE
Candidates demonstrate a solid foundation in the arts and sciences. Our philosophical
commitment to a foundation in the arts and sciences in teacher education programs can be traced
to John Dewey’s (1916, 1938) stance that the liberal arts connect the growth of democracy and
sound educational practice. Candidates must acquire a broad foundation in the arts and sciences
as well as critically analyze that knowledge and recognize its often contested nature (e.g., Banks,
1999; Apple, 2004; Nieto and Bode, 2008).
Candidates possess in-depth knowledge of the subject area to be taught. Alongside
pedagogical knowledge, teachers’ subject matter knowledge has consistently related positively
with student achievement (e.g., Monk, 1994; Darling-Hammond and Youngs, 2002).
Candidates understand how students learn and develop. Candidates acquire understanding
of a broad range of historical and contemporary developmental and learning theories in order to
select appropriate pedagogical strategies and materials to support students’ cognitive, social,
physical and emotional growth (Darling-Hammond, 1998); Gardner, 1993; Piaget, 1970;
Vygotsky, 1978).
Candidates manage classrooms structured in a variety of ways to promote a safe and
orderly environment for learning and to teach the skills of living responsibly in society. The
skills and attitudes students learn are powerfully related to the nature of the society. Democracies
give great power to citizens; responsible citizenship is built in some part through what students
learn from teachers’ approach to classroom management and discipline. Candidates must
understand the theoretical perspectives and practical applications of the range of humanistic and
behavioristic management/discipline models.
• PROFESSIONAL COMMITMENTS
Candidates collaborate with other staff, the community, higher education, other
agencies, and cultural institutions as well as parents and other caregivers for the benefit of
students. Research demonstrates that family involvement in schools has an especially positive
impact on student achievement (cf., Fan & Chen, 2001). Teachers, college faculty and
community members should collaborate to design effective and up-to-date curriculum for teacher
education programs (Goodlad, 1990; Darling-Hammond, 2006).
Candidates continue to develop professionally as reflective practitioners who are
committed to ongoing scholarly inquiry. Technical skills, knowledge, behavior and ethical and
political judgments are critical components of reflective thought and effective teaching (Zeichner
& Liston, 1996). The reflective practitioner (Schon, 1983) keeps abreast of current research and
technology in the field. The reflective practitioner constantly reads, researches, analyzes and
questions issues in the profession (Berliner & Biddle, 1995).
• STANDARDS
Candidates know state and national standards, integrate curriculum among disciplines
and balance historical and contemporary research, theory, and practice related to their
subject. Candidates’ understanding of the social, historical, and philosophical context of
education informs their critical analysis of existing theory and practice. When learning is
disconnected from a meaningful context, student engagement in the process is minimized.
Candidates link knowledge across areas of study to help students make connections. Benefits
include increased learning, motivation, ability to apply concepts and utilize higher-order
thinking, comfort and constructive behavior. Candidates demonstrate appropriate professional
dispositions. Candidates learn to educate for character as well as for intellect. They embody the
highest ethical standards in establishing and maintaining a psychologically and socially safe,
respectful, and supportive environment where all children can learn (Noddings, 2002).
• DIVERSITY
Candidates apply a variety of teaching strategies to develop a positive teaching-learning
environment where all students are encouraged to achieve their highest potential.
Candidates utilize a variety of strategies to address the individual needs of students in diverse
classrooms (Bruner, 1960; Gardner, 1993; Delpit, 2006).
Candidates foster understanding of and respect for individuals’ diverse variations of
ability, ethnicity, culture, language, gender, age, class, and sexual orientation. Respect for
diversity is one of the most central tenets of social justice. Many factors contribute to children’s
“difference,” including race, ethnicity, social class, culture, gender, ability and need for support,
linguistic variation, and sexual orientation (Nieto and Bode, 2008). Candidates must transcend
simple recognition and “tolerance,” promoting respect and appreciation for differences among
humans.
• ASSESSMENT
Candidates use multiple and authentic forms of assessment to analyze teaching and
student learning and to plan curriculum and instruction to meet the needs of individual
students. Evaluation serves as a basis to improve learning and instruction and includes a variety
of evaluation techniques. Meaningful evaluative data is best yielded through both formative and
summative assessments grounded in authentic performance (Wiggins & McTighe, 1998).
• TECHNOLOGY
Candidates demonstrate sufficient technology skills and the ability to integrate
technology into classroom teaching/learning. The positive impact of technology on learning
and development is well substantiated, but effective instruction requires thoughtful guidance.
Candidates must know how and when to use and integrate technology effectively and
appropriately (Floden and Ashburn, 2006).
V. Candidate Assessment
Candidates are assessed at key transition point. Assessments address knowledge, skills, and
dispositions. Candidates in initial programs are assessed at: program application, completion of
field work, student teaching eligibility, student teaching, program completion, and postgraduation. Candidates in advanced programs are assessed at: program application, candidacy,
practicum eligibility, practicum completion, culminating project, post-graduation.

ASSESSMENT AND TEACHING SAMPLE
EDU 490/491: STUDENT TEACHING
Instructions To Candidates:
The purpose of the Assessment and Teaching Sample is for you to use your skills in assessing student
understanding prior to instruction, using that assessment information to develop lesson plans based on
students’ prior knowledge, and assessing student learning after instruction.
The assignment consists of four parts: (1) Conduct an assessment of students’ prior knowledge and
analyze the results of that assessment; (2) Use the assessment results to write a connected and
integrated lesson plan that includes an assessment of students’ learning from that lesson; (3) Teach the
lesson plan; and (4) Analyze the assessment results and assess student learning from the lesson plan
based on the results.
The following ACEI Standards are assessed through this assignment:
Standard 1 - Development, Learning, and Motivation - Candidates know, understand, and use the major
concepts, principles, theories, and research related to development of children and young adolescents
to construct learning opportunities that support individual students’ development, acquisition of
knowledge, and motivation.
Standard 3.1 Integrating and applying knowledge for instruction - Candidates plan and implement
instruction based on knowledge of students, learning theory, connections across the curriculum,
curricular goals, and community.
Standard 4.0 Assessment for instruction - Candidates know, understand, and use formal and informal
assessment strategies to plan, evaluate and strengthen instruction that will promote continuous
intellectual, social, emotional, and physical development of each elementary student.
Materials needed:
(1) Informal assessment recording form that you design
(2) C/EC lesson plan
(3) Formal assessment recording form that you design
(4) Lesson plan reflection form
Completion of the Assignment
You are required to complete the Assessment and Teaching Sample assignment twice. Complete it
during both quarters of Student Teaching, in grades 1-3 placements and in grades 4-6 placements.
However, because children in grades 1-3 and in grades 4-6 are developmentally different, you are
required, in consultation with your cooperating teacher, to make key decisions about the use of
developmentally-appropriate assessment and teaching methods that fit the particular needs of the
children in your host classrooms.
Steps in completing the Assessment and Teaching Sample
Step 1: Use an informal and/or formal assessments recording to carry out a formative assessment of
each participating student’s current understanding of a topic to your teaching (ACEI Standard 4).

In consultation with your host teacher, decide upon which content area(s) and topics you will
focus your Assessment and Teaching Sample assignment. Ideally, you should choose a topic
that integrates two or more subject areas.

In consultation with your teacher, select the children who will participate in the Assessment
and Teaching Sample assignment and decide upon a timeline for implementing all parts of this
assignment.

Choose any informal or formal assessment method to assess the prior knowledge of children in
your host classroom on your chosen topic. Methods can include – but are not limited to:
observation; oral questioning; KWL; rubric; tick-list; portfolio; teacher-made test; performance
task; project; child self-assessment; peer assessment; standardized test; norm-referenced test;
criterion referenced test and diagnostic test. The method you choose should be
developmentally appropriate for the children in your class.

Design appropriate informal or formal assessment recording forms to record the results of your
assessment. Decide on which form of technology to use to facilitate the assessment process
and the analysis of your results.

Carry out your assessment in a small cooperative group or with the whole class, as determined
by class environment.

Use technology to analyze and store the data. Analyze the data qualitatively and/or
quantitatively. Write a short evaluative summary of each student’s prior knowledge of your
topic.
Step 2: Based on your assessment results, plan a lesson on your chosen topic that addresses each
student’s learning needs (ACEI Standard 1 and 3).

Use the results of your initial assessment to write a lesson plan for instruction. Ideally, this plan
will integrate at least two content areas. Build upon the assessment results to write a lesson
plan that is developmentally appropriate, differentiated and challenging for each child. Use the
C/EC Departmental Lesson Planning Form and complete all sections.

Align your lesson plan and teaching with relevant New York State Learning Standards and write
appropriate learning objectives.

Choose a developmentally appropriate assessment method and include it in your lesson plan to
record, measure and evaluate each student’s learning either during or resulting from the
lesson.
Step 3: Implement your lesson plan and final assessment (ACEI Standard 3).

Teach the lesson you planned.

During or after you have taught the lesson, implement your chosen assessment method to measure
each student’s learning from your lesson. Record assessment data on an appropriate form.
Step 4: Analyze your data, evaluate each student’s learning, and explain how this data will inform your
future teaching of this topic (ACEI Standard 4).

Use technology to analyze and store the data. Analyze the data qualitatively and/or
quantitatively. Write a short evaluative summary of each student’s learning from your lesson.
Be sure to include the results of your previous assessment of student’s learning.

In a brief reflection, describe how you will use your assessment of student learning in your future
teaching of your chosen topic.
